Kids' Fall Tree Finger Paint Art Exploration

It’s autumn
and the fall leaves are – well, falling. Celebrate the change in the season
with a fun felt kids’ art activity!

This easy
art-making exploration lets your little artist explore the colors of the fall,
make his very own tree and change it up later on (but, that’s for another
season). I always enjoy felt art activities. The fact that felt sticks to felt
is always fun for the kids and it allows them to ‘do’ for themselves. If you
have glue fear (and many parents do), this project is much more manageable than
the possibility of your child coating the entire kitchen table in a pool of the
sticky stuff. Ok, so this paint project is still somewhat messy. It includes
finger painting, so it’s not exactly tidy.

One of the
best parts of felt crafts is that your child can easily change them out. He can
build fine motor skills while putting the pieces together, problem-solve as he
puzzles out the picture and think creatively when he rearranges everything the
next time around. Keep in mind, this is only the autumn part of the art activity.
Next season I’ll be bringing you a new kids’ tree craft!

Here’s What
You’ll Need:

·Craft
felt sheets (one whole sheet to stick the tree onto and another to make the
tree parts)

This looks like fun! I always just pull out card stock. We need to do more painting on felt. I would love for you to come by Made for Kids and link this up. http://www.theresourcefulmama.com/made-for-kids-5/
